I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which offered breathtaking views and an overall relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant served delicious Italian dishes, and the presence of wildlife like Scarlet Macaws enhanced the experience. However, access to the hotel is a bit tricky due to the unsurfaced road, and while the internet worked well in certain areas, it fell short in the rooms. The beach wasn't always suitable for swimming, but the pool provided a great alternative.

I had a wonderful three-night stay at this resort tucked away from the usual hustle and bustle. The location was serene, right by the beautiful ocean, and the homemade noodles in the restaurant were a delightful surprise. Although the accommodations were not ideal for nightlife enthusiasts, it was the perfect spot for relaxation. My only reservation would be the distance due to some rough roads, but the company and scenery made it worthwhile.

I had a really mixed experience at this hotel. The location is pretty unique and I loved the wildlife sighting of Scarlet MacCaws and Howler monkeys. The room was basic but clean, and I appreciated the thoughtful packed meals they provided for our early morning fishing trips. However, the restaurant confusion and the unpaved approach road made things a bit inconvenient. Overall, it has its charms, but some improvements are definitely needed.

We had a delightful Christmas getaway at this resort, with fantastic service from Carol at the front desk who answered all our queries promptly.
